No, I don't think so. With every esoteic thing I've tried to pacakge, dh
was a good help. Overriding dh_auto_* when necessarry is easy, but then
dh will still take care of the rest and it will also adopt when
something globally changes. I'm all in favor for requiring packages to
be using dh (at least new packages).
